"Insatiable"

Hello there! In this blog post I want to address a statement that NOA President Reggie Fils-Aime released in which he referred to gamers as "insatiable". IGN wrote an article on this, so you may want to read that before you read this post. (http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/26/are-gamers-insatiable)

When I first read this article I was kind of disappointed in one of Nintendo's greatest icons, why would a company so loyal to their fan base turn on them and call them insatiable? However, we can't argue in this case. Reggie is completely accurate in what he said, but he has no business doing so. Actually, couldn't we say that it is "insatiable" of Nintendo to question it's fans?

Anyway, gamers are quite hard to satisfy, and to everyone that is so wronged by Reggie saying this needs to suck it up and look in the mirror. No matter what game companies do, no matter how much they give us, we still feel the need to ask for more. That's only human nature right? Take me, for instance, I write about what more I want all the time. I know that I want all of these things but I wouldn't call myself insatiable, even though I am. I just like to imagine what things would be like, as with a lot of gamers. Even though Reggie was right when he called gamers insatiable, it was still a huge slap in the face to everyone.

I for one think it's fun to be insatiable, to think about what could have been. Nintendo should actually be grateful that we so generously pour our hopes out to them.

So, how do you guys feel about this? Let me know in the comments below! Until then, be insatiable and thanks for reading!
